"The historic marker gives details of the history From 1839 until the early 1920s, pottery was manufactured commercially in Llanelli near to where the St Elli shopping complex now stands. Little or nothing now remains of the factory, apart from a recently-erected blue plaque identifying its original location. However, after 8 decades of pottery making, enough evidence remains in glass cabinets, on shelves and welsh dressers, to testify that pottery, along with rugby and tinplate, is an important part of the town's heritage."
